CASTER ANGLE
When you change the seat angle, you must also change the caster angle so
that the caster wheels remain at a 90° angle to the ground. There are three
possible caster angles. See figure 18. If the front of the seat is higher than the
rear, the caster wheel assembly should be in position 1. If there is little or no seat
dump (i.e., the seat is parallel to the ground), the caster wheel assembly should
be in position 2. If the rear of the seat is higher than the front, the caster wheel
assembly should be in position 3.
NOTE: There are two bolts that fasten the caster wheel assembly to the
frame. The bolt shafts are offset to the bolt heads. The bolt shafts must be
positioned either fore or aft relative to the holes.
To change the caster angle:
1.
Remove the bolts that fasten the caster wheel assembly to the frame.
2. Reposition the bolts according to the table below.
3. Tighten the bolts.
